Native American Heritage Month: Book Spotlight

The first book of its kind, Reproductive Justice: The Politics of Health Care for Native American Women looks at the state of Native American women's health care by focusing on the Pine Ridge Reservation, home of the Oglala Lakota Nation in South Dakota. The book is divided into four parts: "The Stories We Tell and Why;" "Tracing the Ruling Relations: Health Care, the Reproductive Body, and Native America;" "Consequences of the Double Discourse: Native Women's Experiences with the Indian Health Service;" and "Reproductive Justice for Native Women." Also included are two appendixes that feature methods and methodologies and a chronology of federal actions affecting native health care.
